I'm not sure, but I haven't noticed any new features. My other main
problem with Biggles wsa the GNU plotlib produces massive postscript
output which is a pain when trying to use your plots on places like
astro-ph.

Stupid acronym. I should delete it. It is semi-astronomical related, and
as I do astronomy, so I thought I'd use it :-)
It was veusz as there wasn't a veusz in google, and it sounds like "views"
and "use"!
